This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Yep.

I saw it last week but out of the corner of my eye and thought I was seeing things. Thanks!

I never thought I'd see the day when I would watch Richard Burgi drop trou and start having his way with a sofa.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I love this show so much.

From the opening where it seems that they're all working together, but aren't, and are simply on the same page, the emotional follow-through of Sophies seeming betrayal and the hysterical forgiveness scene, to the end which starts with them parting for a third time, and the swelling music and the NOTHING!

I actually think this is the first ep that they really sold me on the disparate personalities being drawn to each other.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I guessed how Leverage was going to end, and then I unguessed it and went for something else.

I love how pissed Eliot was, because he was the loneriest of them all, and he'd accepted other people, and she'd messed that up. Whereas I think Parker and Hardison were more normally hurt.

Could Parker really hide from Hardison? I bet she has enough cash set aside that she can go off the grid for a good long time, never mind alternate identities.

That was a really rotten place to leave it. It made me want to cry! And, I'm so happy that Maggie got her violence on, hee.

It really wasn't where I thought they were going to stop--I thought it would end either earlier or later. Pretty damned mean.

John Rogers' blog talks about Nate/Sophie this season, and I'm glad the writers gave it that much thought.

LOVED that ending. It works if they got another round of shows or didn't. Granted, any suspense on what's (eventually) going to happen next was wiped away by the announcement about the summer return, but I'm curious if they'll play with how they hook up again the way they did at the beginning of this ep.

And, I'm so happy that Maggie got her violence on, hee.

Yes! Also, I was glad to see Nathan admit why everything has been going down the way it has, both between them and in his own life.

ETA - the way it ended almost reminded me a little of how the last episode of Angel ended, though without the impending violence.

talks about Nate/Sophie this season

That was a nice little summary. I only caught about half the episodes today, so it filled in some of the blanks in my mind. And gave me a better idea of where Sophie was at the beginning of The First David Job.
